The authors present the pathophysiology of the zone of lowered density in periventricular white substance of the brain in computer tomography of the head in patients with hydrocephalus. The importance is discussed of that pathology for establishing of indications for surgical control of the shunt. Regression or decrease of that zone after operation is an index of efficacy of the shunt.
